Find out about transitional arrangements and how it affects your bill
Transitional Relief Scheme 2026/27
Transitional relief limits how much your bill can increase each year because of the business rates revaluation.
You’ll get transitional relief if your rates go up by more than a certain amount.
Your business rates bill will be adjusted automatically if you’re eligible.
Transitional Relief Supplement
The government has introduced a 1p in the £ supplement to help fund Transitional relief.
Ratepayers receiving Transitional relief or Supporting Small Businesses relief will not pay the supplement.
This supplement will apply for one year from 1 April 2026.
*Please note our software shows the 1p in the £ supplement on all bills but is then offset within the Transitional relief or Supporting Small Businesses relief calculation.
